About the Crew
CAPTAIN: Tiago Farto Silva
Tiago was born in Lisbon and grew up in Peniche, a surf town on Portugal’s west coast. From a young age he was drawn to the water—sailing optimists and 420s, surfing, and swimming whenever he could. In his twenties, he worked as a surf instructor at Baleal Surfcamp, teaching both kids and adults from all over Europe how to catch their first wave. He later studied at the Nautical University in Lisbon, earning a degree in Nautical Sciences before joining the Norwegian merchant navy as a deck officer. His career took him across the North Sea, Gulf of Mexico, and South Atlantic aboard chemical tankers, seismic vessels, and ROV ships. In 2019, Tiago returned to Europe and began working charters in Greece and Croatia, and it also brought him to Tahiti and the Caribbean. He loves that chartering allowed him to bring together many of his passions—instructing, navigating, exploring, and life on the water—and he’s been doing it ever since. Having spent most of his life at sea, Tiago is a confident and experienced captain who enjoys sharing his knowledge and showing others the beauty of life on the ocean. Calm, capable, and deeply experienced, Tiago makes every guest feel safe, relaxed, and well taken care of.

Sardinia & Corsica July 2026
Tiago, Sarai, Dylon & Max,
WOW! What an incredible week in Sardinia and Corsica… The four of you brought the magic of warmth in hospitality from knowing all 8 of our morning Barista orders :), finding the perfect snorkelling coves and anti-fogging our masks, to Uber dinghy'ing us ashore. You never missed a moment, even in the motorised donut!! Dylon - we cant thank you enough!
Max - your food was exceptional!! Beyond!! Every meal was better than any restaurant on land with the best view.
Sarai - you are a master of many wellness talents - flavoured waters, to your mixology with Myrthe (sp?), to any yoga to start our mindful day. You are multi talented.
Tiago - you stealthily changed course to get us to the calmest waters and best spots, to cheering on Spain in the world cup. Your captain energy is the best!!
Thank you for the BEST trip of our lives.
Siete Mares in Sardinia, July 2026 - Cheers from São Paulo Brazil!
We truly appreciate dedicated professionals like every single one of the crew. Tiago, thank you for choosing prime spots in Sardinia and Corsica, thank you Sarai for making sure we all had drinks and especially for the coffee. Dylon, for the great foil lessons and snorkelling spots. And last but DEFINITELY not least, Max for the amazing food that almost made us feel guilt for eating out of the boat.
We hope that all of you live a happy and well lived life if our paths don't cross again. We'd happily welcome you in Brazil whenever. We hope we meet again!

The best boat with the best crew!
Our second time on Siete Mares was even better than our first time. We anticipated this trip during 2025 because we knew how special this would be.
Bastian, Sarai, Sylon, and Kiki created such a beautiful, relaxing, joyful experience for our family - a truly treasured time for us. We will always be grateful for the thought and effort put into each day. you are all so attentive and thoughtful in your details.
We are already looking forward to our 3rd trip together

Christmas 2025 BVI Charter
What a spectacular week aboard Siete Mares with the most amazing crew ever! From sunrises to sunsets, every day was filled with adventure, efoiling, sea scooters, stand up paddelboards, kayaking, waterskiing, scenic hikes, and the grounding, soul centering yoga practice led by Sarai. Each experience felt perfectly curated and balanced, exhileration and calm in the most magical way.
And then of course there was Kiki's food - simply unforgettable. Every meal somehow outdid the last with imaginative tablescapes and stunning presentations that made each gathering into a celebration. The flavors, the creativity, the care - pure artistry. (And the never ending, self filling snack baskets, legendary)!

The perfect boat, the best crew, thanks so much again!

Siete Mares family,
Thank you so much for another incredible week in the BVI. Of course the boat itself is
incredible. We had all the space + toys we could possibly need. But more importantly,
you the crew helped to make this another unforgettable time for our family. You
prepared + predicted for our every need. We loved learning to use the e-foil, snorkeling
in every possible spot, and the yoga was an amazing way to start the day on the boat.
This is our third vacation with you and each trip has been better than the last. Thank
you so so much for creating another wonderful family week for us.
March 2025
Thank you for your generosity, kindness and warmth during our stay with you. The love you showed touched our hearts deeply. We also felt the deepest sense of nourishment to be in your care. From Davide’s creative, delicious and colorful spreads to Bastian’s skilled and grounded leadership, to Chanry’s sweet, cheerful and loving support and Sarai’s sweeping foresight and passion for hospitality. To be with all of you is to feel safe and at home. Props to William as well for capturing the beauty of your vessel and connecting us all. We were honored to be a part of the journey. Wishing you all the blessings and good fortune. Thank you again for having all of us.

Our charter experience this past week can only be described as perfect. The boat is gorgeous, impeccably decorated, and maintained, and every second we spent here was a joy. The real star of our trip was the crew, who we can’t thank enough. From Bastian’s captaining, Chanry’s service and wine pairing, Sarai’s bartending and yoga practice, and Davide’s incredible meals, each crew member is a true master of their craft. We were deeply impressed by the confident grace with which you all worked. Congrats on a successful first charter with Siete Mares, thank you for making it special, and here’s to many more in the future!
June 2024
Bastian & Sarai - From the moment we stepped onto this beautiful vessel, we could not have felt more welcomed by you both. To say that this is just a 'bucket list vacay' does not touch the surface of this amazing week. The food was DELICIOUS! Even with all of our picky likes and dislikes, Sarai was able to "WOW" us all with her amazing meals. Bastian dazzled us with his abilities to make the best cocktails, as well as being a superb captain, taking us from island to island.
We could not have asked for a better crew. You have been the key to making our vacation an adventure of a lifetime which we will never forget. We have enjoyed our conversations with you both, and are in awe of your worldly travels and experiences. We would love for our paths to cross again some day!

Dear Bastian & Sarai,
Reflecting on our 40th Birthday journey in the BVI will forever bring a grin to our faces and a glow to our hearts.
Bastian, your skills in navigating the seas were nothing short of impressive. Your calm demeanor and leadership was very appreciated as it helped relax our group.
Sarai, your culinary wizardry had us convinced we were dining at a Michelin star restaurant on the high seas. I swear your poke bowl had us singing its praises louder than the ocean waves. Somehow you read our minds when prepping our menu.
As you both continue on your journey, we wish you nothing but smooth sailing and endless culinary delights.
